It's a meaty chicken and stew meat soup that's loaded with all sorts of garden vegetables, like crunchy celery, sweet carrots, earthy cabbage, delightful potatoes, juicy tomatoes, tender green beans, plump peas, and sweet corn. The savory broth takes some time to simmer, which is perfect if you have a lot on your to-do list. Wisconsin Booyah, your delectable flavor is definitely worth celebrating — booyah!
